1982 Citroen 2CV 0.6L Petrol · BHP 414Y

The vehicle maintains a consistent roadworthiness status, though the maintenance trend indicates a persistent issue with front major geometry. In the most recent test in April 2022 at 39,539 miles, the vehicle passed with an advisory for slight play in the nearside front upper king bush. This reflects a recurring mechanicalCondition that has been noted across several testing cycles, suggesting that while the components remain legally roadworthy, the suspension assembly has not been proactively refurbished. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 44-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 900 miles per annum. There is a significant data anomaly or gap between the April 2018 test at 98,403 miles and the March 2019 test at 9,962 miles, which suggests either an odometer replacement or a recording error during that period. Since the 2019 test, the car has covered roughly 30,000 miles, confirming a patterns of low frequency of use that often leads to the degradation of rubber components, seals, and fluid despite the low mechanical wear on the drivetrain. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the front axle artwork pins and king pin assemblies, as these have been flagged for play in everyTest since 2018. The recurring nature of the nearside front suspension advisories across 2019, 2021, and 2022 indicates that the bushes and pins are nearing the end of their functional life. Additionally, the offside rear wheel bearing play noted in 2018 should be re-checked to ensure the condition has not worsened, as low-mileage vehicles of this era are prone to internal corrosion and structural thinning in the monocoque if left stationary for extended periods.
